This week on the podcast we’re living the good life as we talk about Crazy Rich Asians, directed by Jon M. Chu and starring Constance Wu, Henry Golding, and the wonderful Michelle Yeoh. There’s a lot to like in this lavish film, but it’s not without its problems. Special guest Gabriel Figueroa helps us break down what worked, and what didn’t.

This week on the podcast we have a bit of a Predator problem. Namely, that the new Predator movie is called THE PREDATOR. You’d think after enough of these movies they would want to reduce the confusion, not add to it. Anyway, this movie is a bit of a mess so we brought in friend of the show Erik Steffens to help us figure out what worked and what didn’t.

This week on the show we’re joined by newcomers Kyle Anderson and Makaela Newsome to talk about Lynne Ramsay’s latest and fairly divisive film You Were Never Really Here. It’s a movie that actively rebels against its genre, which works for some of us and not so much for others. Overall, a fun and in-depth discussion on an interesting movie.
